The Sacred Domain Dynasty is one of the most powerful countries on the continent today, and its imperial capital is indeed a dazzling eight streets and nine mo. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the sky is not completely dark at this moment, between the streets and alleys, a variety of lanterns and candlesticks of new styles and kinds have already been lit, and this long light illuminates the streets and alleys that Ruhuan must pass through when returning home very brightly.
Ru Huan was walking down the bustling street where the shouting was constant, and when it was dinner time, the smell of fragrant food came from the restaurant, which made her stomach begin to wail miserably.
After walking a few steps, I felt a smell of meat coming, this smell of crime seemed to be able to hook people's souls, and Ru Huan looked at the source of the fragrance with a salivating expression.
The vendors on the side of the road are lifting the lids to reveal snow-white and fragrant meat buns, and a red banner next to it is pulled outward, with "thyme packets" written in large letters on it, and several wolf dogs next to the stall whose saliva has flowed all over the ground are prostrate on the ground with scarlet tongues.
Ru Huan suddenly felt that their expressions must be similar to her at the moment, so she quickly swallowed saliva to hide her gaffe, she naturally touched her hungry stomach, and grabbed a few hard things to attract her attention, and suddenly a scene in the morning flashed in front of her.
At the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion this morning, Zhiqiu, a personal maid who has served Ruhuan since she was a child, secretly stuffed a few copper coins for her as an emergency.
Thanks to Zhiqiu, this ghost girl, Ru Huan was overjoyed, she immediately took out the copper money and ran to the bun stall to buy a steaming meat bun.
Seeing a few wolf dogs staring at him, Ru Huan couldn't help but ask the stall owner: "This uncle, your meat buns are extremely sweet, even these dogs salivate, but it's very strange, they can endure just looking at it and not grabbing it." ”
The stall owner said very proudly: "These yellow dogs are actually raised by the old man, and the old man has already taught them that only the meat buns that fall on the ground can be eaten, and letting them squat here is actually to prevent other dogs and cats from stealing them." ”
Ru Huan nodded and praised: "It's amazing, the uncle is not only skilled in dog training, but the taste of this meat bun is also invincible." ”
The stall owner saw Ru Huan's admiration in his eyes, and became more and more happy: "Little girl, even if you know the goods, in fact, the reason why the old man's thyme bag is so delicious is mainly because of a spice, this spice is my family's ancestral secret recipe, as long as you put it, dogs and cats within a radius of ten miles will smell the fragrance and move." ”
Ru Huan asked the stall owner for advice while tasting the delicious food, and suddenly there was an exclamation in her ears, she immediately looked at the source of the sound, in the treasure Zhai next door to the "thyme bag", a girl in red staggered back a few steps and almost fell to the ground, she noticed that it attracted the attention of passers-by, and immediately nodded and smiled at the crowd watching the excitement.
This girl in red has an ugly face, and it is the woman who talked to her when she left the cherry blossoms, and it seems that her name is Ye Keke.
Ye Keke just made the things in her hands scatter all over the place, so she immediately leaned over and picked them up.
The pink-shirted girl who left with her appeared in Ru Huan's field of vision, she looked commanding, and was scolding loudly: "Useless waste, don't break Sister Shiyun's things." ”
A sweet voice came out: "Forget it, sister Yiyi, Coco is also careless, she is your own sister, you can forgive her for this." Then a sweet and lovely round face appeared.
Ye Keke put everything on himself, and smiled with a smile on his face: "Sister, don't worry, there are some embroidery fabrics here, and they won't break." ”
Ye Yiyi glanced at Ye Keke with disdain, and sneered: "You are so round and stout, you can't hold this little thing, right?"
Ye Keke's figure is indeed round and jade, and when she heard Ye Yiyi's hurtful self-esteem tone, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, but she immediately changed to a smiling expression: "Coke is as powerful as a cow, no problem." ”
Ye Yiyi snorted with contempt and sneered: "It's good that you have self-knowledge, fortunately there is a Xie Ruhuan who won the 'laurel' of your first ugly girl, otherwise you can only hide in the mansion in this life and dare not go out to meet people." ”
The round-faced girl who was called Sister Shiyun covered her mouth and smiled: "Sister Yiyi, you also went to the Drunken Immortal Garden today, is Xie Ruhuan really ugly now and can't bear to look at it directly? The girl's smile was sweet, but her words were vicious.
Ru Huan frowned when he heard this, he could be shot if he ate a meat bun in a good manner?
Ru Huan was searching for who this round-faced girl was in her chaotic memory, and Ye Yiyi's words immediately explained to her: "Sister Shiyun, you are the only beloved daughter of the Imperial Capital, and your status is much more noble than that of her illegitimate daughter of a left minister. I have heard my father mention that although my father is the right prime minister, it seems that his official position is equal to that of my sister's father, but in fact, he also has to respect my sister's father for three points. ”
The highest official in charge of all government affairs in the imperial capital, whose status is equivalent to that of the mayor of the capital?
It seems that the name of the ruling secretary of the imperial capital is Liu Chengru, is this round-faced girl his daughter?
Ru Huan recalled it for a long time, and she didn't think that she had offended this Liu Shiyun.
Looking at the mediocre-looking Ye Yiyi, who was foaming at the moment and telling Liu Shiyun about the interesting news that happened at today's concubine selection ceremony, her father was the right prime minister, so she and Ye Keke were the daughters of the right prime minister Ye Mao.
"Sister Shiyun, you can't imagine that ugly girl actually asked His Royal Highness Hades to grab her hand in front of everyone!"
"Really, that woman is so shameless?"
"Of course it's true, I don't believe you asked Ye Keke. ”
Liu Shiyun's eyes really fell on Ye Keke with doubts, and Ye Keke smiled bitterly: "This is true...... But...... The situation was urgent...... Miss Xie Er thought it was to save people......"
"What do you know! Shameless is shameless, can an ordinary girl from a good family say such a thing? What is saving people, she just hit by mistake, and in the end, didn't she rely on the martial arts of the Hades King to save the second prince?" Ye Yiyi gave Ye Keke a roll of his eyes.
"Miss Xie Er, in terms of her humble status, she is also worthy of an illegitimate daughter, but she is just a wild seed. Liu Shiyun's words were vicious, but she still had that lovely smile on her face, which couldn't help but send chills down people's spines.
"There is an even more strange thing, that ugly girl actually cut Su Yi's stomach open on the spot, what to say about examining the corpse, and now the whole emperor is crazy, saying that she is a demon girl who cuts out her heart and liver. ”
"Sister Yiyi, I've heard of this, that Su Yi slut actually had an affair with a man, it's really a shame for the eunuchs and nobles. ”
"That Miss Su is already quite miserable...... Doesn't that seem like a good idea?"
"Ye Keke, what are you? Dare to talk to us like this? Is it that ugly girl Xie Ruhuan doesn't seem to be so wasteful today, and you want to learn from her yourself?"
Ye Yiyi's loud reprimand made Ye Keke immediately shrink her head, and she immediately put on a smile: "Where dare Keke, whatever my sister says, it's what it is." ”
Liu Shiyun smiled contemptuously: "Sister Keke, you must be careful, in case you let Xie Ruhuan's ugly girl get a good reputation, then the title of 'the first ugly girl in the imperial capital' may fall on your head again." ”
Ye Keke was obviously startled when she heard her words, her narrow eyes were immediately covered with a layer of horror, she moved her lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something but didn't say it.
Ru Huan heard that Liu Shiyun and Ye Yiyi were humiliating themselves so much behind their backs, it seemed that they had to let these two long-tongued women taste their sister's methods!
Ru Huan groaned slightly, her bright eyes suddenly flashed a hint of cunning, and she approached the stall owner of the "thyme bag" and didn't know what to whisper......
